I have decided that from now on I will be posting mostly twitter updates on the Olympic games, for I watch a lot of events and can tweet about them live. You can follow me on twitter or see the updates in my sidebar. I will recollect the ideas and big wins with a blog post as well.
Day 2
These are the events that I saw and tweeted on.
Individual ski jumping:
- Simon Ammann with the first gold of the 2010 Olympics
- Adam Malysz
- Gregor Schlierenzauer
Speed Skating men’s 5000
- Sven Kramer was the very popular choice from the Netherlands
- Lee
- Skobrev
Short track men’s 1500
- Jung Su Lee
- Apolo Ohno
- J.R. Celski
Apolo did not get the gold, though he and his teammate were able to come in 2nd and 3rd due to a collision of 2 other koreans.
Women’s Moguls
- Hannah Kearney achieved her shot at redemption
- Jenn Heil did not quite pull off the gold medal for Canada
- Shannon Barke
Day 3
Men’s Luge Singles
- Felix Loch of Germany
- David Moeller
- Armin Zoeggeler
Men’s Moguls
- Alexandra Bilodeau – he finally breaks Canada’s curse by winning a gold at his home country’s games
- Dale Begg-Smith the Vancouver born defending medalist was close from Australia
- Bryon Wilson of the US
That wraps up the events I watched, there were some other ones that went on today, but I am excited for this week to come!
